BellyUp! St. Augustine / Vegan

Vegan St. Augustine

A vegan option and a vegan kitchen are two different dinners.

Fully vegan kitchens and the places that mark vegan dishes on their own menus, from Old Town to the beach.

5 spots

Buena Onda Cafe

West Augustine · vegetarian, latin american, coffee

A family-run vegetarian cafe in the old Present Moment Cafe spot on West King Street, where most dishes can be made vegan and the soup always is. Scratch-made breakfast and lunch, specialty coffee, house ginger mint lemonade, and parking behind the building.

Purple Olive

Anastasia Island · new american, mediterranean

Chef Peter Kenney's restaurant spent 21 years on St. Augustine Beach before moving to Anastasia Island in 2025, into the remodeled Gypsy Cab Company building. The menu marks vegan and gluten-free dishes, and the kids menu is billed as Kids, Tweens & Teens.

The Floridian

St. Augustine Beach · southern, farm-to-table

Genie and Jeff McNally's farm-to-table Southern kitchen, founded downtown in 2010, reopened in 2026 in its own building on Old Beach Road. The menu names its farms and marks vegan and gluten-free plates, and tofu or tempeh goes on most of them.

The Manatee Cafe

West Augustine · vegetarian, organic

A mostly vegetarian cafe in Westgate Plaza on State Road 16, where owner and chef Michael Ugarte uses certified organic produce when available and swaps in vegan or gluten-free on request. It doubles as a community board, flyers welcome.

The Sprout Kitchen

Old City · plant-based, juice, bagels

The only fully plant-based kitchen in this roster: a cafe and juice bar using organic, non-GMO and local ingredients where it can, with cashew cream cheese and carrot lox on the bagels. Founder Chef Forrest Masters came up through the Present Moment Cafe and the Ann Wigmore institute.
